borrowed a sum of money from a young
Man named Strong who resided in the
same town in which my home is located.
Shortly after he had made this loan he
began visiting our home and paying at

liked him and did not .refrain from in
forming him of the wey I felt Several
times he bad asked me to marry him.
hut this I had repeatedly refused to do,
butatiM he persiated in calling upon
me.
A few weeka aoo the mortgage fell

afthat be must have the money or
the property by a certain day or either

This father consented to do, ajid later
oa during the day he broached the suh
iect to me and intimated tlfat it would
be a good match for me. I, however.
loathed the man and would have died
rather, than have done this, but I told
bun that I wanted to visit my sister in
Baltimore for a few days, and that I
would let him know what I would do
when I returned.
I left home the next day presumably
to vialc mv aiater, but instead, I went
oa oyer to the city and procured cm
ployment with Mr. Stone who was en
gaged in operating a fortune - telling
scheme. It is simply a case of where I
would have either had to see roy father
give up his home or marry a man I did
not love, and in order to avoid doing
either f left home."
Miss Small and Stone left yesterday
day afternoon' for some other city,
where they will stand lens chance of
being re arrested if another warrant is
issued for them.

Wilmington Delegation Highly Pleaaed
Aa could only have been expected the
German citizenry ofv Wilmington, mov
ing in large force upon New Bern and
in most elaborate manner, has scored a
brilliant triumph. The papers and peo
ple speak glowingly of the success of
the Wilmington delegation at New
Bern, and all of which must appeal
with especial force to the heart of every
Wilmingtonian. It was fittin&jndeed
that the Germans of Wilmington should
take part in the New Bern celebration
and their action reflects much credit
upon this city, because Wilmington is
the largest German-American city in
North Carolinn and one of the very
largest in the South. This in itself is
a matter for the folks of our eity, re
cognizing as they must their sturdy
qualities, and progressive and other
wise splendid citizenship, to appreciate
keenly and deeply Wilmington Dis
